Air fryer silicone pot 2 to 2.6 QT

Air Fryers are great for crisping / browning / frying many foods, and although a very light coating of oil may be needed for desired effect on certain foods (for example, vegetables such as zucchini and green beans), they still achieve a much healthier simulacrum of deep frying. However, between the inherent presence of fats and oils in many foods and a brushed-on light coating of oil, cleaning air fryers can still be a pain in the neck. The many air circulation holes in the bottom and sides of most air fryer baskets often result in a coating of oil throughout the entire insides of the air fryer that then needs to be awkwardly cleaned in addition to the removable basket. Enter the silicon air fryer basket! While I was initially a bit concerned that the solid wall and bottom of this basket might impair effective airflow around the food inside it and consequently limit its crisping / browning / frying capabilities, I have not found that to be the case. The nice sized ridges on the bottom permit good airflow underneath the food and the side wall is low enough to permit good general airflow around it. Worst case (and not a big deal), depending on the food you are cooking you may want to turn and flip the food upside down halfway through the cooking cycle to promote more even crisping / browning / frying. Regardless, virtually any oil that escapes from the food remains in the basket, which is then easily removed for cleaning in hot soapy water. Although in general it can be a bit challenging to remove food discoloration from silicon cookware, I've found that using a good grease-cutting dish detergent does the job with little extra effort, especially when you immerse the basket in VERY HOT soapy water IMMEDIATELY after removing it from the fryer while the basket itself is still quite hot. Additionally, it helps to use a soft-bristled brush to remove food bits etc. from the crevices between the ridges on the bottom. All in all, this product has been quite the find and has made life much easier for me when using my air fryer. As a result, I use it much more often than previously, when I often found myself weighing the desirability of air frying against the hassle of cleaning the air fryer. Pros: - Good airflow crisps / browns / fries foods effectively - Nice tabs on the basket wall make it easy to remove the still hot silicon basket from the air fryer basket - Easy to soak the basket for thorough cleaning - Inside of the air fryer itself remains quite clean and largely free from any oily build-up Cons (Very Slight) - Depending on the food you are cooking, you may need to turn and flip the food upside down halfway through the cooking cycle for more even crisping / browning / frying - Like all silicon cookware, requires a bit more care to clean compared to nonstick or ceramic kitchenware, but overall still much easier than needing to clean the air fryer internals after using the basket that comes with the air fryer - Although available in multiple sizes, may slightly decrease available room for foods in your air fryer depending upon its shape and dimensions

It is well made. After using it for potatoes, fish, chicken, pork still looking like new, very easy to clean and the handles are great not hot. With the price, no smell at all while cooking on it.

It saves me from cleaning the air fryer's basket. I use this silicon basket for Gourmia 6 Quart Air Fryer MODEL: GAF686. It does take a little longer to cook certain foods like chicken but it is just as quick with other foods like fish and fries. Fries are hard to turn over or shuffle around for even cooking due to the deep ridges. I keep the air fryer's bottom vent in the basket then add the silicon basket. Depending on what I'm cooking I may leave it out while the air fryer heats up. Sometimes if I need to get the silicon basket out of the air fryer's basket it can be a little difficult remove while it is hot but you can use utensils on it's handles to take it out. Overall, I am please with this item and depending on the food cooked in the basket can be clean easily by placing in the dishwasher, but for juicier items you may need to hand wash due to deep browning or burning of the juices on the basket but it's much easier to clean than the air fryer's metal basket.

Short answer: A couple days after buying one, I ordered a second. Yeah, it’s that good. I have the 5.8 quart Cosori air fryer (also highly recommended) and use it a lot, sometimes twice a day. This means a lot of cleaning for both the wire basket and the basket base. They’re huge. It’s a pain to hand wash them so often and using the dishwasher means risking the non-stick surfaces. Now, I just drop in this silicone insert and wash it instead. It turns inside out for easier hand washing, but I bought two so I could just toss the used one into the dishwasher. The insert gets really hot inside the air fryer so don’t be like my husband and grab the handles barehanded! It’s not burning hot but yes, protect your hands with oven mitts or a towel. Also, if you cook something that benefits from air circulation or contact with metal underneath, remember to flip or shake for best results. For example, you’ll need to flip grilled cheese sandwiches halfway through cooking. The XL fits perfectly in the 5.8 quart Cosori.

I just purchased a Chefman 8 qt. air fryer and discovered this silicone pot online. I purchased the XL and you can see how it fits. The basket is big enough to fit one chicken breast cut into pieces to make chicken tenders. If you need to fit more, you might want to remove the silicone pot. I've used the pot a few times and it is easy to clean by hand washing. When you open the air fryer it is hot so you need a pot holder. It seems to retain heat for awhile, which keeps the food warm. I reheated fried fish and the grease nicely fell into the grooves. I'm totally happy with this silicone pot! It seems thick & sturdy. It means less cleaning and wear & tear on the Teflon-coated air fryer basket.

It fits the air fryer well and works well enough, but I find it difficult to clean by hand. Maybe it cleans well with a dishwasher, but not all of us have one. It’s also a little difficult to remove with food in it because it’s so flexible. Consequently, food needs to be removed from it while it’s still in the air fryer. It would be nice to be able to lift the food out in it. Definitely would not purchase again.

This pot lived up to my hopes. It is good quality (and my husband looked up Platinum Silicon, which I assumed was just marketing, and found it's for food). No smell, it doesn't pick up the odor of what's just been cooked. It's easy to clean, especially if you let it soak for a few minutes. It retains its shape. And, best of all, food in it cooks fine and the pot contains the mess. I don't use it for everything, but do use it more often for more things than I expected.

This thing actually works pretty well. My air fryer has a removable plate instead of a basket like most. This means I can’t just tip my food out after cooking. The silicone basket makes it possible to easily lift out the food and transfer it to a plate or bowl. Also, any crumbs or oil left behind are easy to deal with. The only negative thing might be that the silicone basket is very hot after use. You will need to use a napkin, pot holder or something else to lift it. -Update- I’ve been using this basket for a year now and it has held up very well. I actually have two that I alternate between. When I got the second recently, it was very apparent that the original has become discolored with use. However, it doesn’t have any other obvious wear and hasn’t picked up any food odors. I’m still very happy with my purchase.

It just fits in my airfreight.works really good. I find it better than the paper . .

洗うは大変。。。なかなかきれいにできない。特に食材の残った油。。。

A great quality product. Delivery was delayed by about a a week. I received an unexpected credit to recompense the delay. Excellent customer service by Amazon. The Premium Air Fryer Pot is everything it was advertised to be. We use it constantly in our air fryer and it is easy to clean, including in the dishwasher. Definitely recommended.

Para mí sorpresa este producto si aguanta temperaturas altas como para horneado. Hasta ahora es funcional.

ideal for my airfryer
